Question lpd restart problem, help if u can...


I have run into a problem with the lpd restart command...

After adding a new printer to the hosts & printcap file, done checkpc -f followed by the /sbin/service lpd restart all printing stops working,

so far the only solution is to do a soft restart of the machine
PS distro is 9.0 kernel 2, reasonably up-to-date with updates

this has only started happening recently, the last week or so, before then this procedure work without fail

helps if u can, thanks...

(not sure if this belongs to Redhat or Fedora so have posted in both of them)
